CU CHI TUNNELS - VIETNAM 

underrated comment

@@ItzxRhino especially for 5 years

DAMMIT. I made a similar comment before reading this and SWORE i was hilarious.

@@ItzxRhino Fist bump* Thanks!

@@codywhite4688 Fist bump* Thanks!

Have you learnt any of Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean languaget. It's really tough. The same goes for a Vietnamese to learn English. This tour guide spent long hrs on end to learn English. Naturally he read or/& watched Hollywood a lot for his English skill & these American spices found their way into his narratives to certain extent. He may also rely on American goodwill for handsome tips. So good narratives are usually a combo of facts & fiction. It's good for entertainment.

@@BL-db6xt Its more easy for us Vietnamese to learn English because we use the alphabet, too. Its more touch for the Chinese, Japanese, Korean,...

Hello Where I can get the book

😘like you

Im an Vietnamese and I dont even know this saying

@@trungkienngo6267 You did not know it, you do now.

@@ilsavv Thank u grandpa

I laughed at your joke. Then it made me think. I think any us veteran who's willing to visit what's effectively an enemy's war museum has some real guts. They're willing to examine the most hellish moments of their lives at an arms length so they can better understand the history and tactics. That's humbling, honestly.

He acted like he’d like to choke him

we handing out mines? 10:44 *resisting to choke guide *

he knows his history, that's for sure.

@@egomaniac247 also his English is excellent too. Very fluent and very confident.

ya man, joe whack

yamen Jolak did he tell you those spikes had Faeces put on them ? And this caused 11% of American deaths.

@@ronpreece3429 maybe you should host the tour too!

Fat americans couldnt fit in to these tunnels XD

It seems US fought that war with one arm tied behind there back

Rudy your right always RESPECT YOUR ENEMY!!

Cường Nguyễn Trang Hùng Wait how does Russia have anything to do with the Vietnam war? (Besides Communism and arming the NVA and VC)

jt slepica no, mikael asking why we can live in tunnels with 35 C. i said we can because we can, just like russian live on there heat. ---

Oh ok

Feel bad for my english when i read it again

Not every tech weapon. You can be as smart as you want, but there is always a person smarter than you, and if he builds a new weapon, you're fucked.

Leo The fuck you are talking about....?

"One thing is for sure: intelligence, wisdom, knowledge is stronger than any tech weapon." About what Hudson Ferreira said.

an ethnically homogenous people is the ultimate weapon against any attacker.

Not without motivation attached.

As good as he can be in a country that doesn't have freedom of speech . He would be in big trouble if he didn't have a pro north stance

@@ScreenHackTV nah people can shit on the government. Tho just dont intend to start any weird factions cuz that aint gonna end well

@@GachaLord incorrect . 5 women were jailed a couple of years ago for owning the old Vietnamese flag with 3 red stripes and two other people were jailed for writing negative things about the government on fb.

@@ScreenHackTV freedom of *speech* , no more no less. After all, Vietnam was never a democracy, not even the old RVN was, it was just anti-communist and thats it If they try anything like that then it counts as potential threats to the government and the unified country. Creating an illegal party/faction against them, AKA classified as traitors. And communist or no, Vietnamese have never been anything but brutal towards traitors(there was a tradition to kill *three generations of the traitor, them, their son, and their parents* ). Yes our government isnt perfect, but they havent made any stupid moves (yet) either, so having the flag of the old RVN instead of a unified communist VietNam isnt something they gonna stand for. And trust me, them getting jailed isnt really that much better than not being jailed cuz if people find out (excluding the old regime supporters which is like one or two percent of the population) that they arent jailed yet then they're gonna get boycotted and to oblivion.

@@GachaLord vietnam has abandoned almost all its communist principles for which it sacrificed so many of its own people. I really hope that one day , you are a believer in ho chi minh because you want to , not because you HAVE TO , . I also hope that one day vietnam will be a free , democratic, liberal country with freedom of speech and write the wrongs .

They were lucky i did not step it

Coulda just nuked the whole place

@@ron.hertzberg yes because that wouldn't cause an international nuclear bomb war

They were fighting for their lives, not communism. The Americans had no reason

@@defeatedpuppy9284 You've nailed it James, since when did the Americans ever need a reason to oppress anyone? Have a nice week, my best regaqrds to you and your's!

Hazy Sativa Yankees got fucked up over there

@@jacobjorgenson9285 they also took their share with them. Vietnam war was a meat grinder.

Horang Pungryuga losing doesn’t make you a coward

@Horang Pungryuga the Americans who came back are heroes. I know that some were mad, some killed prisoners, just don't get me started on it. If you were in vietnam, I bet you would be crapping your pants.

MrKingdig you are very stupid to say that.

Hey sdjduududdusususuu a 6 ulitii

k Kk shsuhssjsjsjzjjzk op u g fddddddddcc

@Meldrop A false fact actually. In Resistance against American invasion, well over 58000 US troops KIA and more than 330000 other contain physical wounds, not counted psychological and Dioxin-poisoned ones in. It also costs Americans 7.2 million tons of bombs compared to 2.5 million used by them for the whole World War 2 all over the globe. Numbers speak itself, but here we have another problem: American and their allies have a favourite of multiplying People’s Army of Vietnam plus Liberation Army of South Vietnam’s death toll by factor of 2, 5, 10 or even higher in each battle, which included mostly unarmed civilians by the way. US killing Vietnamese people? Just count it in the “Viet Cong” part and then, boom, problem solved. Also, with little to no naval fleet, a small air force, no strategic nuclear weapons and numerous disadvantages, in the corrected counting after negated those irrelevant forces, SUPRISINGLY, death rate of PAVN and LASV are the same as US Armed Forces. This can be proven through battles where American tactical advantages were unavailable like when we reached as close to them as possible without being detected then opened fire, to force them not using their airstrikes (it will kill themselves too, mutually assured destruction at battle scale); or when our permanent force fired artillery shells aiming American ammunition storage inside their base successfully to set back imbalancement in equipments from their beneficial to a more “neutral” status first, before main tanks-and-AFV-supported attack waves launched; for example.

@Dan Trebune so, 2 most brutal wars in human history, expanded to continents with dozens of nations involved are just 1 and 4 times more destructive than Resistance against American invasion, made it the 3rd largest war mankind have ever seen. Good, so now not any single country on this Earth can say anything about "Vietnam War is not brutal compared to ours".

you're a more forgiving man than I, if I saw a Afghani displaying an M4 I'd be pretty pissed. Only one way you get that weapon.

+MrBrock19w Yup. But the fact is, who are we to go to someone elses country and not expect to get killed. every soldier knows the risk.

and cheap labor is more of weapon if used in such a manor isnt it. food for thought...

deadheart the USA been handing out rifles like candy to the “moderate” rebels in Syria.

Michael In San Francisco...thank you for your service. Interesting how you are nowadays excuse me I know that didn't come across correctly our sous chef was a tunnel rat and that guy was just unbelievably crazy genius Navy SEAL smart but very humble and just a very humble nice hard-working man thank you again for your service

He's seems overly proud

Kristina Rain, You forgot the English !

Guerilla warfare is not a US thing, it was fighting tactics that was borrowed from the real Americans (native nations of the American continent) just like everything else “US” borrowed and stolen yet trying to lay claim to “inventing” it.

@@darpa2226 "Vietnam was a beautiful modern country", already forgotten the the majority that lived in Saigon were mostly the Elites and French? Already forgotten the brutal exploitations the French and the Japanese did to the Vietnamese people? Already forgotten even during the Vietnam War, the North was even more developed and was already capable of manufacturing things on their own instead of relying on supplies aided by the West and its allies like the South? Give me a fucking break.

They knew their land almost as well as Americans know where the fast food restaurants are.

Because there whole land was jungle and beaches. It was easy for them to navigate. But America is the opposite because we have different land. We have snowy lands, forest, jungle, desert and stuff like that

Agree!!! He got on my nerves, showing disrespect. Sep 2020, stay safe!

He probably fought there and lost alot of friends

He looked like a retired douche bag officer,

He was probably a bad ass soldier gets tired of hearing this guy talk about his friends that past. Have some respect especially if your an American!!!!

True. That's first thing I noticed as well.

yall got destroyed in an useless, anti democratic, imperialist war.

it was the real thing ! al my respect to the vietnam people. they lost 4millionpeople but won the war

I learned more from youtube than in history class 😂

It is.. :)

It really is.

We are not allies with the Viets, at least we dont try to destroying their country and have more or less normal relationship which is good enough for now .

You should definitely go. It will bring a sharp focus to how utterly idiotic the war was when you see, first hand, what the US Govt of the 70s was trying to prevent happening has actually become a stable, prospering country that lives in peace. I guarantee that every single American who visits Vietnam today will think the "American War" was utter lunacy. Hindsight is brutal, undeniable and dispassionate.

We should Nuke them back into the stone age revenge would be sweet and we would put China on the ropes!

@@HgHg-yp6ft Is this a joke? Are you really that ignorant? We are absolutely allies with Vietnam, anywhere there is money to be made, we will invest into it. That's America for you.... Keep in mind, we lost the war. The AMERICANS lost the war as well. It was not a good war, the only victor was capitalist greed and communism. Shoes and many more products are made in Vietnam, e.g. many Nike shoes. Remember that not every Viet was a commie, seriously, remember that. There was the Viet Cong, NVA, and the ARVN in Vietnam. Please don't generalize the Viets then as all commies, that's despicable. You know the Americans helped the ARVN too right? There were good Vietnamese people and soliders. Keep your ignorant ass off the internet please.

Tunnel snakes for life

+Ben Dover You think that is astonishing? look up the traps they used

Skylar Bjornman Well creating underground tunnels without being detected and so deep underground ,.... the whole tunnel system were several hundred kms in total lenght! Impressive

I know there tunnels are extremely fascinating! but their traps were amazing too

Skylar Bjornman Ofc they were. Punji traps, booby traps, everything!

+Ben Dover ~ they worked so hard because they'd get killed if they didn't.

juanjeremy2012, Shame on you for opening your flytrap !

peter north so true. If some one bring war to us? What will we do?

peter north American woman crying for forgiveness ? She can kiss my ass along with her pal Obama

@@ngoctu2603 the north Vietnam brought war on the south let’s not mix things up that’s why you got invaded

Americans were invited by freedom loving God fearing Vietnamese. Communism is a disease

Sorry my freind but I think it was paranoia on the Americans side that communism would spread nothing more .You see why where the French here in the 50s was their motive to stop the spread of communism?

Motherland Viet Nam Travel yes indeed i had witnessed the beauty and politeness of the vietnamese people. Ive been there last feb. 6-12 2018 to visit my gf in hcmc .. i fell inlove with vietnam right away.

@@richmonddaque8077 how much did you pay for her.. asking for a friend

The commies were the biggest tunnel rats anyway.

Yep, he sure looks pissed.

SwedeKillah Nah, he's thinking, "man this is a boring tour, where's the McDonald's around here!

Where ever you encounter fat Americans in the world this is the attitude they give everyone. They think they are gods gift to the world. The slob in the film didn't want to hear how Americans were totally out thought and out fought in Viet Nam.

Gordon Steadman Gee, you don't generalize do you! ha ha. Typical thoughtless response. Yeah those hundreds of millions of people are all exactly the same.

***** You know what they say, "a haters gonna hate. Guess that pretty well sums up angry Gordo doesn't it. He seems to have real issues with fat people. Wonder if he hates fat people from all countries, or just those from America, ha ha.

+Trapaholic. those traps were designed with every intent to kill. if you didnt die immediately you'd die from uncontrollable bleeding or with some very few soldiers, come home missing with body parts. Guerrilla warfare is meant to kill enemy soldiers. my uncle is a vietnam veteran of the US Army and told me all about those traps. he did three tours and rarely seen those traps "injure" anybody.if you ran into any one of em your chances of survival was below 5%. more than half of our soldiers died as a result of them traps. So dont you dare sit there and type that they were meant to "injure" anybody

+matt aldrich were you offended there Matt , it's okay , you don't have to cry - and learn how to speak English

Don't piss me off man and no I'm not offended I'm just irritated that some people just don't have a clue about anything. Even when the evidence is right there in front of them

We went through hell during that war an our government did nothing to help. Like I said earlier we coulda won that war in less than 6months if we we're station further to the north. But instead they stationed our soldiers in the south. It brought them money and that's all they wanted. They didn't care about the 500000+ men that were killed. They didn't care that they were sending 18yo boys out there as bait for the Vietcong. All They wanted was the money. It was 100% ran by politics. And that's a true fact

Beautiful comment. Sorry to hear you were there.

Vatican run out by bhudism.... right.... Vietnamese girl in my country says that it was because Vietnam started selling oil to china. So they FAKED the Gulf of Tonkin incident to START the war.... and said it was to stop communism basically going south thru all of asian until it hit Australia. Known as the domino theory.

Imagine back when they were building them during the war. How many lives were lost in tunnel building

@@josephedward9107 Yeah It's scary. All those lives lost for what?

Freedom and independance was the vietnamese vs french war. USA vs vietnam, the north vietnams ga Goal was to unite Vietnam into one

The Vietnamese people fought to survive. The governments may have a different agenda.......usually driven by satan himself. The average person/soldier wants nothing to do with any of that crap.

peter rech I applaud your braveness; I cannot even imagine surviving through..

peter rech .. Thank YOU for your service sir 👍🏼

Peter, thank you so much for your service. This video seriously put the Cu Chi Province in freightening perspective. The VC, NVA were a formidable enemy. The camouflage was remarkable and I really don't see how our guys could had detected those entryways or sniper holes. I get it that this was too painful to watch. My dad fought in the South Pacific in WWII and he Never watched war movies or for that matter let us. He'd seen too much the first time around and didn't see war as entertainment.

I was a paratrooper 69-70 I too was glad to leave after being wounded five times...thank God none very serious

Peter Rech, they do show a painting of GI's in green being shot at and retreating, no voice over, you might want to look away at that. 41:00 to 41:30 But generally its pretty mild. Old folks on a lesson tour. Trying to not slip on the stairs that have no handrail. We're all getting old it seems. I had a high lottery number and didn't have to serve, others did, I'm sorry. The Vietnamese were just fighting against foreign domination, like the ununiformed american patriots of the 1770's. The hatchet is buried.

Michael In San Francisco probably both

Definitely trained guide . Name tag and ID

No, he is a soldier and specially trained in war history

He talking like he was viet-cong.

@@caibap8756 he seems young to be a soldier

Maybe not in this video ,but when I went ,there were plenty of kids there ... bright red and sweating from the heat ... same at the war museum in the city ..

My vision is that EEUU lost democracy in world war II, now days they have an intermediates choose that represent the relation between the power and the people, but this power itself those not change, so is not democraty. If you read the papers of coronel kurtz you foud the true thing about the most powerful technocracy of the world making it with agrarian society. Enought answer.

When I was child I play vietnam war with my friends, we have a tree that was an helicopter, a big nature sorrunds that was the jungle, of course we were children playing soldiers, amercian soldiers, when I grow up I found thah maybe the moral was in the vietnam soldier, and moral won over high tech weapons. Thats the question, for more info just see AVATAR, or dancing with wolfs.

kyletango Sorry to hear about what happened at Cu Chi to your neighbor.

What a noob i got a 89/1 kd

Tom Apostolou so right. We live our lives under lies from our govs. They re for themselves. Whatever they say just believe 10%.

@Natural Slasher what is the South ?? Have only one Vietnam. Dumbass

In then 1960s Vietnam split you slantie fuck

-about 300,000 Chinese troops + other communist countries supported North Vietnam -about 600,000 usa troops + other democratic countries supported south Vietnam. There was no conquering. Clearly don't understand the history of the cold war . Nor have any respect for the 1 million plus south viets that died for a democratic Vietnam and the further 1 million who were put in communist camps after the war

@Natural Slasher you lost the war. shut up lol

@@theobvu Half Vietnam lost to it's northern part assisted by communist forces.... it sounds like a futile argument honestly. Eventually if the people are happy now, it doesn't matter. But if we look further, it seems the world is losing to communism. Look at the extreme left and the media incl. YT pushing communist agenda's. Eventually if people are happy I guess it doesn't matter. But there is a reason people flock to the West from all over the world. Maybe they prefer the ideology and way of living here.

"When will people realize that war is never the answer." When?? Never. Human nature is unchanging.

@@MikeSki. Well your "grandparents" had no business in Vietnam to begin with. Vietnam was never a threat to the U.S.
